A. Before publication of the 1999 edition of NFPA 13, miscellaneous storage served as the demarcation point at which a certain size storage space could b protected in accordance with NFPA 13, without having to comply with one of the NFPA 231 series. Miscellaneous storage was limited to storage of a certain configuration, height, and floor area. The criteria for protecting miscellaneous storage is now the same as the criteria for protecting storage up to 12 feet (4 meters) regardless of the size of the storage area or the manner in which commodities are stored.
